Entertaiment is an article about entertainment, something that gives euphoric pleasure and helps forget one’s worries for a short period of time. It may be a sport, an art form, music or even a video game.
Several forms of entertainment are interconnected, with some themes and images crossing over different types of media. For example, the story of Scheherazade – an ancient professional storytelling tradition in the Persian world – inspired many composers to create orchestral works; directors to make films; and developers to create innovative video games.
Children’s entertainment can also be important for their development – it can mimic adult activities; prepare them for social interaction; develop motor skills; and encourage creativity (9). Often this involves play involving toys and advanced technology (7).
